Photograph of a painting of a man and woman carrying fruit and game. The woman, on the left, carries a basket of fruit on her head. The male carries a deer on his back and a basket of dead birds.
At the time of the photograph, the painting was attributed to Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) and was believed to depict the artist with his wife. The painting is now attributed to Frans Snyders (1579-1657). The work is on display at Kenwood House, London.
